Weather Report..................

I know that I only tend to post here when the weather is good in NE Scotland but we really have been very lucky recently. Last week we had to take the van down to Englandshire to have some work done so we decided to take a few days over it. We left here on Tuesday morning in such bright sunshine that driving south into the sun was a bit of a nightmare. It stayed sunny until our overnight stop on Shap. Then all we had was relentless rain, murk and mist throughout our time down south. Driving back north as soon as we crossed the Queensferry Crossing on Sunday morning the clouds parted and we arrived home in bright sunshine. Today has also been wall to wall sunshine, although cold with a heavy frost last night. Give me cold dry weather (typical east coast Scotland) any time over wet and warm weather (typical west coast Scotland) any time!

Still dark outside, but went to put some rubbish in outside bins earlier and it was very calm and not too cold, so looks to be shaping up to be a decent day in a bit.

Just as well ;) I'm expecting a call from the Old Bill to start my community service later today ... :oops:

What have you been doing ?
 
Down to 5 degrees, outside. Everyone in the village has more heating and lights on, as the voltage drops.
That's when the power cuts start. Right on 11.00, As a TV show ends, they all flush their toilets.. That brings in the huge pump that brings water from the valley bottom, up to the cisterns on the hilltop. .. Bang... Pitch black.
Goodnight
 
bright and chilly this morning, just waiting for grandkids then off to Legoland Manchester for a birthday treat (no not mine ?) so weather wont matter..........
 
If I recall correctly from my student days at Exeter University Slapton Sands was a nudist beach. We even managed to persuade the powers that be to take us there on a field trip to study the “geology”! I trust that it’s plenty warm enough for you lot then!

It still is, Tony.
I have a nervous disposition so watching the other three cavorting along the strand was frankly more than I could bear last evening.
So it was an early night for me.

Hey, we have clouds. ..! Light, fluffy ones. Haven't seen one of those for weeks,
Winds spinning round like a .... Windmill... Sitting outside, socks and sleeves weather.
The forecast agrees with th locals, we're due some rain tomorrow evening.
I'll be back outside, when the roof has been washed clean, connecting up the feed to the cisterns. Then the rain will probably stop... As usual.. !
More expected at the weekend... Proper rain..
We'll see.!
